should the MU figures have used cloth capes?

[gorillax]

most of the caped figures can't even stand their plastic capes are too heavy, Hasbro used cloth capes for GI JOE figures like Serpentor, should they have done the same for the MU figures?

[BigBot84]

No.

[CLAM]

hell. no.

[Dragon66]

No, the cloth capes might look great in package, but never look that great loose.

[spidersam]

Big NO!

[hoganvibe]

I don't think they look good on a 6 inch scale, so I can't imagine they'd be any better on a 4 inch figure. But MU comes with stands now so the standing issue seems to be less of an issue.

[BigBot84]

If you look at Dr. Strange's cloak of levitation, there is just no way to make it look half as good if it were made of cloth.

[Draven79]

NO! I hate they have moved so far into soft goods on SW, its the reason I hardly ever buy a SW fig anymore. They lost like %90 of my business there.

IDK I would like to see the cloth capes back. I like them as a kid, and would like to see how they would be adapted to the figures nowadays as some of them are to heavy on the figures they come with.

Ya know I don't buy MU but if I did I'm give it a big HELL YES!

 

I love cloth capes. Got me a General Lando SW figure recently and he wouldn't rock half as much without it. Dito for Darth Vader. Cobra Commander? Serpentor? Dr. Mindbender? Cloth capes are a must!

[CLAM]

no way man. Cloth looks like ASS on small figures.

 

Cloth should only be used for 12 inchers or larger

[Superpowers1980]

Cloth capes are the best, the best way to update them though is to have them wired so they can be molded. As for that stupid and ugly Dr Strange cape an extreme mold like that does need to be plastic or you can get the same pose with a stand and a wired cape.

 

Most companies are better with the type of plastic used but I always perfer to old cloth capes from the 70's and 80's
